San Diego Chargers Daily Links: October 27, 2015

Week 7 Quick Reads - Vincent Verhei
Through three quarters, Rivers had ammassed a total of 110 net yards three first downs, and two interceptions. Only Andrew Luck had a worse DYAR this week through three quarters. At that point the Chargers were down by 31 points, and Rivers spent the next 15 minutes doing some serious stat-padding, gaining 221 net yards and 13 first downs (including all three of his touchdowns) in the final period. Only Tom Brady had a better DYAR in the fourth quarter or overtime this week.

Any Given Sunday: Raiders Over Chargers - Andrew Healy
Let's start with Cooper and a Raiders passing game that is showing signs of entering a season of light. On just six targets, Cooper tied Calvin Johnson for the best day for a wide receiver in Week 7 with 63 DYAR.

Chargers made strangers in own home - Michael Gehlken (UT$)
"I didn’t recognize us in the first half," safety Darrell Stuckey said. "That team that was out there, it didn’t look like us. You could see the fight in us (late) and you know we’re not going to give up, but obviously, it was too little too late."
